Despite what Ye Shian said, Yu Xiuying was still a little worried. Although she had Ye Shian's space to save her life, it was not good to expose space in front of everyone.

"Shi'an, do you have any self-defense weapons? Give me one."

Ye Shian thought for a moment and took out a fruit knife from the space: "Mom, you should carry this with you."

Yu Xiuying took the fruit knife and looked at it. Although she didn't know much about iron, she knew the knife was very sharp.

With weapons to protect herself, Yu Xiuying felt more at ease.

The villagers who originally lived on the top of the mountain near Dalian Mountain were afraid that they would be the first to be retaliated by the wolves, so they moved down the mountain.

However, the people in the cave decided to live in the cave after discussion, as it is easier to defend than the caves outside.

Sure enough, a pack of wolves attacked in the middle of the night, but what was unexpected was that the wolves split into two groups. One group pretended to attack to attract people's attention, while the other group of wolves quietly went around to the other side and stole two children and killed an adult. Even though there were strong laborers who fought hard, they could not save the situation.

That night the whole mountain was filled with green eyes. This incident became a nightmare for many people, so much so that the people who stayed in Huaishu Village later did not dare to go up the mountain during the day, even if it was a rocky mountain.

Before dawn the next day, the people on the mountain could no longer stay, and except for those in the cave, most people chose to leave. The flood water below the mountain had not receded much, and most of the people were submerged in water. It was impossible to follow the usual route.

Some brave ones wanted to wade through the water, but they turned back halfway because the water was too deep and there was no way they could wade!

Some people tried to find a way to get a raft and leave, which was a relatively reliable idea. Ye Shian also thought so. If they stayed, they might be attacked by wolves at any time, which was too dangerous.

Suddenly, trees became everyone's target, and there were even many fights over trees!

Yu Xiuying and Ye Shian planned to use the wood from the shed to make a simple raft. However, there were only a few pieces of wood used to build the shed, so it was obviously not enough to build a raft.

Just when the two were worried, Zhang Guifang came and asked, "Yu Xiuying, what are your plans?"

Yu Xiuying hugged Ziyuan and said, "Sister Zhang, this mountain is too dangerous. I want to go down."

"That's what I thought, too. I want to get a raft and leave this rocky mountain first, and then go to the county. Zhang Huai's father is still in the county, and I want to go find him first."

"We also plan to go to the county first, but we may not have enough wood to make a raft..."

Zhang Guifang smiled and patted Yu Xiuying's hand: "I'm here now. I think the wood from our two sheds should be enough to make a raft."

Yu Xiuying was a little embarrassed: "Mrs. Zhang, I don't know what to say. Thank you so much for taking care of us, an orphan and a widow..."

"Look at what you said. If you say that, I will be angry. Your man saved my Hu Zi. Do you think I am going to be so annoying? We are from the same village and we should take care of each other."

Yu Xiuying sighed: "You didn't say it, but you kept it in your heart, Sister Zhang, I won't say more to thank you so much."

"No more words, no more words, let's hurry up and try to leave Stone Mountain before dark."

Yu Xiuying nodded in agreement: "Well, fortunately the wolves didn't come when it rained, otherwise we really don't know if they are still there."

Ye Shian roughly guessed the reason why the wolves did not come on the rainy night. It was not that the wolves did not want to come, but the rain blocked the human breath. Later, when the rain stopped, the villagers ran to the wolf's territory to dig wild vegetables, which led to the wolves attacking the villagers.

In fact, even if the villagers did not break in, the wolves would sooner or later target the villagers who were seeking refuge.

Zhang Yongshan is a carpenter, and his son Zhang Huai also knows a little bit. Although not as proficient as his father, he can still make a simple raft.

They first pulled the wood to the edge of the flood, leaving Yu Xiuying there to watch, while Zhang Guifang guarded at the valley. Wood was an important thing now, and if no one was watching it would definitely be taken away.

Zhang Guifang wanted to help transport the wood down the mountain and asked Ye Shian to guard it here.

Ye Shian pushed the person aside and said, "Auntie, just stay here and watch over the wood so that no one can take it away. I'm very strong."

"But you are still injured. Let me do this job."

Ye Shian slapped away Zhang Guifang's hand that was resting on the wood, and used his fingers to lift the hair that covered the scar: "Look, Auntie, it's healed a long time ago."

After saying that, she pulled one end of the wood and walked down the mountain. In fact, the easiest way to transport wood is to throw it down, but now they dare not throw it down, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Anyway, she is very strong, and there are only more than ten pieces of wood in total, and she can move them all quickly.

Zhang Huai wiped the sweat off his head and said, "Mom, go and cook. Shi'an and I are here."

Zhang Huai was not worried about Ye Shian at all, he knew too well how strong Ye Shian was.

Hu Zi was not to be outdone, and patted his chest to assure, "Mom, I'm still here."

Zhang Guifang watched her youngest son struggling to lift a small piece of wood and warned him, "Be careful, don't drop it."

As Ye Shian was walking down from the valley, he heard Yu Xiuying's loud warning voice at the foot of the mountain. Opposite her, two men were talking about something.

Ye Shian was anxious and her steps were a little unsteady. She slipped several times, but she managed to crawl down while dragging the wood.

Before she arrived, a voice came over: "What do you want to do?"

When the two men saw that the person coming down was just a little girl, they didn't take her seriously at all and still had no intention of leaving.

Yu Xiuying stared at the two men in front of her with a sullen face, and scolded them, "Hurry up and leave! My family is on the mountain. If you dare to mess around, don't blame me for being rude."

Peng Shan smiled slyly: "Your family, you mean that little girl, haha, I say, we just want your wood, not your person, why are you so fierce, or do you think we want you and your mother, hahaha..."

As he said this, he thought he was being very funny and burst into laughter.

These two men were hooligans from the next village, one was called Pengshan and the other was called Yuqing. Their shed was not far from Ye Shian. They knew what happened in the Ye family and naturally knew that Yu Xiuying and her two daughters were helpless.

Yu Xiuying was furious: "I told you, we need to use this wood, we can't give it to you. If you want to use the wood, go find it yourself."

"We were looking for it, and now we've found it here, haven't we?" Yu Qing was a man with a wretched appearance, and his words were also wretched.

The two men approached Yu Xiuying. Ziyuan was sleeping in Yu Xiuying's backpack. It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid at this moment. She had experienced a flood and knew that some people were worse than animals. Not to mention stealing things, they were capable of even more terrible things.

But she understood that being afraid was useless. If she was afraid, no one would be able to protect her two daughters.

She suddenly pulled out the fruit knife from her arms and stared at the two people fiercely: "I'll say it again, get out of here, or don't blame me for being rude."

The two men didn't expect that Yu Xiuying, who looked so honest, would actually draw her knife, and they were so scared that they stopped.
